Definitions
- the present invention relates to a slider for slide fastener, and in particular to a slider for slide fastener, in which mount ability of a pull tab holder body on a slider body is significantly enhanced and thus product efficiency is increased.
- crimping using a circular wire pin is employed as a structure of attaching a pull tab holder body to a slider body, but shaft holes need to be provided in the pull tab holder body and the slider body. Therefore, a slider for slide fastener is devised in which no circular wire pin is employed when attaching the pull tab holder body to the slider body, thereby enhancing productivity.
- flanges provided on a pull tab holder body are fitted into slide grooves of a slider body and then crimping pad portions provided on the slider body are crushed from the upper side thereof by a punch or the like so that the flanges of the pull tab holder body is crimped to an upper blade of the slider body, thereby allowing an operation of attaching the pull tab holder body to the slider body to be simply performed.
- a part of side wall portions of a pull tab holder body is pressed toward a recess portion of a slider body and also raised portions formed on an upper blade are pressed toward a fixing recess portions provided on flanges of the pull tab holder body.
- the pull tab holder body is crimped and fixed to the slider body at two locations, thereby attempting to enhance attachment strength of the pull tab holder body to the slider body.
- the crimping pad portions need to be provided on the slider body and also there is a need for enhancing attachment strength of the pull tab holder body to the slider body. Also, in the slider for slide fastener described in Patent Document 2, because the pull tab holder body and the slider body are crimped at two locations, attachment strength thereof is enhanced, but crimping marks are left on side surfaces of the pull tab holder body. Also, because the fixing recess portions having a thin thickness are formed on the flanges, there is a problem in that processing thereof is complex.
- the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a slider for slide fastener which can enhance workability when attaching a pull tab holder body to a slider body and has a strong attachment strength and a good appearance.
- the object of the present invention is achieved by the following configurations.
- the pull tab holder body includes the flanges extending from right and left side surfaces of the one end portion in a width direction and also extending in a longitudinal direction, and the slider body includes the slide groove portions formed in a front end portion of the upper blade and configured to receive the flanges.
- one of the pull tab holder body and the slider body has the protrusion portion protruding toward the other of the pull tab holder body and the slider body and the other of the pull tab holder body and the slider body has a recess portion to be engaged with the protrusion portion.
- the flanges are inserted into the slide groove portions and the upper surface portions of the upper blade located above the slide groove portions are crimped toward the flanges, so that the protrusion portion is engaged with the recess portion and thus the pull tab holder body is fixed to the slider body. Accordingly, attachment of the pull tab holder body to the slider body can be facilitated, thereby enhancing productivity.
- the pull tab holder body and the slider body are fixed to each other in the upward and downward direction by crimping and also the pull tab holder body and the slider body are fixed to each other in the forward and rearward direction by engagement of the protrusion portion with the recess portion.
- attachment strength can be increased because the whole of the flanges is crimped, and also appearance can be enhanced because no crimping mark is left on the pull tab holder body.
- a side, from which fastener elements are disengaged and come out, corresponding to a wider side of a slider is referred to as a shoulder mouth side
- a side, from which the fastener elements are engaged and come out, corresponding to a narrower side of the slider is referred to as a rear mouth side.

- a pivotal recess portion 66 is formed on an upper portion of the claw body base end portion 61 to be pivoted about the pivot pin 13, of which both ends are held in the U-shaped grooves 27c of the claw body support portion 27, and a lower recess portion 67 is provided on a lower portion of the claw body base end portion 61.
- the pull tab 70 has an annular portion 71, into which the pull tab holder body 40 is to be inserted, on one end side thereof and a handle portion 72 extending from the annular portion 71 to the other end side.
- An attachment shaft portion 73 having a circular cross section is arranged on a distal end portion of the annular portion 71.
- a length of the attachment shaft portion 73 is set to be larger than a width dimension of the pull tab holder body 40.
- the opening and closing member 50 and the coil spring 11 are mounted on the slider body 20.
- the coil spring 11 is mounted in the spring mounting groove 33 formed in the upper blade 21 of the slider body 20 and then the guide portion 51 of the opening and closing member 50 is fitted and inserted into the opening and closing member guide groove 32 of the upper blade 21.
- the protruding piece portions 34 provided on both sides of the opening and closing member guide groove 32 are pushed and bent toward the widthwise middle portion of the slider body 20.
- the opening and closing member 50 is attached to the slider body 20 to be slidable along the opening and closing member 32 in a state where the opening and closing member 50 is always urged by an elastic force of the coil spring 11.
- the leaf spring 12, the stop claw body 60, the pivot pin 13 and the pull tab holder body 40 are mounted in this order.
- the leaf spring 12 which is formed in a rectangular shape by a spring steel plate, is inserted into the spring chamber 35 provided between the right and left wall portions 27a and 27b of the claw body support portion 27, and then the stop claw body 60 is inserted between the right and left wall portions 27a and 27b from the upper side thereof, while engaging the lower recess portion 67 of the stop claw body 60 with the positioning protrusion portion 36.
- the pivot pin 13 is fitted into the U-shaped grooves 27c of the claw body support portion 27 and then is placed on the pivot recess portion 66 of the stop claw body 60.
- the leaf spring 12 and the pivot pin 13 are preferably crimped and fixed to the claw body support portion 27.
- the flanges 41 of the pull tab holder body 40 are inserted into the slide groove portions 29 from the front end of the slider body 20, and also as shown in Fig. 5B , the pull tab holder body 40 is slid along the slide groove portions 29 toward the rear side of the slider body 20.
- the upper surfaces 41a of the flanges 41 are inclined so that the thickness t of the flanges 41 is gradually decreased from the rear end portions 41c of the flanges 41 toward the front end portions 41d, whereas the groove height L of the slide groove portions 29 are formed to be uniform along the forward and rearward direction. Accordingly, gaps between the flanges 41 and the slide groove portions 29 in the upward and downward direction are larger on the front end portions 41d side of the flanges 41 than that on the rear end portions 41c side.
- the pull tab holder body 40 can be tilted so that the front end portions 41d are lifted upward (see Fig. 5B ), thereby preventing interference between the protrusion portion 42 and the wall 37 of the slider body 20 when the pull tab holder body 40 is slid toward the rear side of the slider body 20.
- the rear end wall 42b of the protrusion portion 42 is inclined relative to the lower surface 43a of the fixed base end portion 43, and thus as shown in Fig. 5B , as the protrusion portion 42 is guided by the wall 37 of the slider body 20, the pull tab holder body 40 is gradually tilted in a counter-clock wise and also is slid toward the rear side of the slider body 20. Then, the protrusion portion 42 is climbed over the wall 37 of the slider body 20 and thus is engaged with the recess portion 30 (see Fig. 6A ).
- both side surfaces 41b of the flanges 41 are inclined in the forward and rearward direction (see Fig. 3A ) so that the width W of the flanges 41 is gradually widened toward the front end portion of the slider body 20, contact areas of the crimped portions are increased, thereby enhancing crimping strength.
- the front end wall 42a of the protrusion portion 42 is formed to be perpendicular to the lower surface 43a, engagement thereof with the recess portion 30 is securely kept against a forward force to be exerted on the pull tab holder body 40.
- the step portion 46 of the pull tab holder body 40 is abutted against the pivot pin 13 and thus presses the pivot pin 13, which is fitted in the U-shaped grooves 27c of the claw body support portion 27, from the upper side thereof, thereby enhancing attachment strength of the pivot pin 13.
- the stop claw body 60 is supported to be swingable about the pivot pin 13.
- the stop claw body 60 is pivoted in a counter-clock wise in Fig. 6B because the more front end side thereof than the pivot pin 13 is urged upward by an elastic force of the leaf spring 12. Accordingly, the claw portion 64 of the stop claw body 50 protrudes from the claw hole 31 into the element guide passage 24 and is engaged with fastener elements, not shown.
- the opening and closing member 50 is always urged rearward by the coil spring 11. Accordingly, the gap 14 formed between the rear end portion 44 of the pull tab holder body 40 and the upper blade 21 of the slider body 20 is closed by the base end-side closing portions 52 of the opening and closing member 50, and also gaps formed between the continuous edge portions 49 of the pull tab holder body 40 and the upper blade 21 are closed by the distal end-side closing portions 53 of the opening and closing member 50.
- the attachment shaft portion 73 of the pull tab 70 is pushed and inserted into the gap 14 from the rear end side of the slider 10 for slide fastener.
- the opening and closing member 50 is slidingly moved forward along the opening and closing member guide groove 32 of the upper blade 21 against the urging force of the coil spring 11.
- the attachment shaft portion 73 of the pull tab 70 is inserted through the gap 14 and thus the pull tab 70 is mounted.
- the pull tab holder body 40 includes the flanges 41 extending from right and left side surfaces of the fixed base end portion 43 in the width direction and also extending in the longitudinal direction, and the protrusion portion 42 protruding toward the slider body 20.
- the slider body 20 includes the slide groove portions 29 formed in the front end portion of the upper blade 21 and configured to receive the flanges 41, and the recess portion 30 configured to be engaged with the protrusion portion 42.
- the flanges 41 are inserted into the slide groove portions 29 and then the upper surface portions 21b of the upper blade 21 located above the slide groove portions 29 are crimped toward the flanges 41 so that the protrusion portion 42 is engaged with the recess portion 30 and thus the pull tab holder body 40 is fixed to the slider body 20. Accordingly, attachment of the pull tab holder body 40 to the slider body 20 can be facilitated, thereby enhancing productivity.
- the pull tab holder body 40 and the slider body 30 are fixed to each other in the upward and downward direction by crimping and also the pull tab holder body 40 and the slider body 20 are fixed to each other in the forward and rearward direction by engagement of the protrusion portion 42 with the recess portion 30.
- attachment strength can be increased because the whole of the flanges 41 is crimped, and also appearance can be enhanced because no crimping mark is left on the pull tab holder body 40.
- the upper surfaces 41a of the flanges 41 are inclined surfaces configured so that the thickness t of the flanges 41 is gradually decreased from the rear end portions 41c of the flanges 41 toward the front end portions 41d thereof. Accordingly, the protrusion portion 42 can be smoothly engaged with the recess portion 30 by tilting the pull tab holder body 40 when the flanges 41 of the pull tab holder body 40 are inserted into the slide groove portions 29 of the slider body 20. Also, the thickness t of the rear end portions 41c of the flanges 41, on which a force is likely to be concentrated when an external force is exerted on the pull tab holder body 40, can be increased, thereby enhancing strength.
- the side surfaces 41b of the flanges 41 are inclined so that the width W of the flanges 41 is gradually widened from the rear end portions 41c of the flanges 41 toward the front end portions 41d. Accordingly, when the upper surface portions 21b of the upper blade 21 are crimped toward the flanges 41, contact areas between the crimped portions of the slider body 20 and the flanges 41 can be increased, thereby enhancing attachment strength. Also, the flanges 41 of the pull tab holder body 40 can be easily inserted into the slide groove portions 29 of the slider body 20.
- the protrusion portion 42 is formed to protrude from the lower surface of the fixed base end portion 43 of the pull tab holder body 40 toward the slider body 20, and also the recess portion 30 is formed in the front end portion side of the upper blade 21. Accordingly, by engaging the protrusion portion 42 with the recess portion 30, the pull tab holder body 40 and the slider body 20 can be fixed to each other in the forward and rearward direction, thereby enhancing attachment strength.
- the flanges 41 have upper surfaces 41a inclined so that the thickness t thereof is gradually decreased from the rear end portions 41c toward the front end portions 41d, the present invention is not limited to that.
- flanges 41 are formed so that a thickness t thereof are uniform from rear end portions 41c to front end portions 41d.
- slide groove portions 29 of the slider body 20 are formed so that a groove height L thereof are slightly larger than the total dimension of the thickness t of the flanges 41 and a protruding height of the protrusion portion 42 of the pull tab holder body 40 and also are uniform along the forward and rearward direction.
- flanges 41 are formed so that a thickness t thereof are uniform from rear end portions 41c to front end portions 41d.
- slide groove portions 29 of the slider body 20 have upper surfaces 29a inclined so that a groove height L thereof is gradually increased from the lengthwise middle portion of the slider body 20 toward the front end portion thereof, and also formed so that a groove height L at the front end portion is slightly larger than the total dimension of the thickness t of the flanges 41 and a protruding height of the protrusion portion 42 of the pull tab holder body 40.
- the flanges 41 of the pull tab holder body 40 is inserted along the slide groove portions 29 and also the protrusion portion 42 is guided by the wall 37 of the slider body 20.
